It is difficult to gauge the severity of the underlying cause of pain on the basis of the pain’s qualities. Intestinal gas can cause immobilizing pain, while heart attack may initially manifest as vague discomfort. Fever (body temperature above 100º f) often accompanies bacterial infections, which require treatment with antibiotic medications.

Most abdominal discomfort is transitory and benign. Abdominal discomfort requires medical attention when pain is debilitating or continues for longer than five days without improvement, there is discharge from the penis or vagina, or there is accompanying vomiting or diarrhea for longer than three days.
